Verse
E MajorE A augmentedA
I stayed away too long I know
E MajorE
And every day was slow to go
A augmentedA
Every night I dreamed I was here
E MajorE
It's been a mighty lonely year
A augmentedA
Every mile I needed you
D MajorD A augmentedA
I kinda hope that you needed me too
D MajorD
Everywhere I saw your face
A augmentedA
Around every town I was in
E MajorE
This old familiar place welcomed me again
A augmentedA
Back to where I belonged to be
E MajorE A augmentedA
Back to you and Tennessee
E MajorE A augmentedA
Back to you and Tennessee
Verse
D MajorD
Beside the Cumberland River
A augmentedA
Where the grass is soft and sweet
D MajorD
We ran across the fields of cedar
A augmentedA E MajorE
Hiding from the noisy streets
A augmentedA
And when the leaves fell from the cold
E MajorE A augmentedA
The stars were silver the moon was gold
D MajorD A augmentedA
I said it's yours with love from me
D MajorD A augmentedA
I'm planting my roots in this ground
E MajorE
And when they look for me I'll be found
A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA
With something that is part of me you and Tennessee
E MajorE A augmentedA
Back with you and Tennessee
